About


Biltone - Through the Invisible Landscape - Sweet Dreams


Biltone Biography:

Always atmospheric, often mysterious and occasionally stripped bare.
Biltone music ranges from sparse laments to rich tapestries of live strings and vocal harmonies.
Shades of sorrow and rays of hope dance amongst the lyrics.

Biltone have received airplay as far a-field as Ontario and Hamburg (NDR) and have played live on Radio Merseyside in their hometown in Liverpool. Their unique music has featured in podcasts around the globe. From Summer 2006 through to Autumn 2007 Biltone recorded their debut album "Through the invisible landscape" which received great reviews (some of which can be found below) and is now available on iTunes.

Biltone feature on the Contact Records compilation "The Enochian way", with their seminal piece "Humming bird".
This year the track "Sweet dreams" will be featured on the Sleepy records compilation "Lullabies and Good Morning songs".

Biltone continue to gig, record and promote their music around the U.K and abroad.

Biltone - Through The Invisible Landscape
"Its gentle genius. Power and menace without volume, sharp, not bitter, traditionally inventive and achingly lovely." Unpeeled magazine
"Through The Invisible Landscape" is a sort of post-rock meets pastoral soundscapes kinda thing - rich melodic passages vie gently with, and/or are juxtaposed to, stark yet warm instrumental dynamics and beautifully sensitive voices - quite breathtaking, massively compelling! pretty much as good as it gets really." Peter J Brown (www.toxicpete.co.uk)

"It seemed as though boxhead ensemble, talk talk, and harold budd came together to remind me of the simple pleasures of just being here in the wake up- being gone. Gorgeous." Ian Doig Phaneuf 94.9 FM Western Radio, Ontario

"Sounds like great pop to me...maybe they are too far ahead, soon the world will catch up with their esoteric brilliance." Henry Priestman-producer songwriter formerly of the Christians.
